Despite shining on film, Scooby Wright posts disappointing combine numbers

LB Scooby Wright was a unanimous All-American and Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, but many questioned his overall athleticism heading into the NFL combine. He confirmed those suspicions with a 4.90 40-yard dash time and a 9'5" broad jump. Wright lives off his killer instincts and awareness, but he will need to speed up and increase his intangibles to succeed in the NFL. (Walter Football)
Fantasy Impact:
Scooby Wright is hard to project as both a draft selection and an NFL player. I believe his instincts could allow him to play well at the next level, but a 4.9 40-yard dash could have significantly dropped him on draft boards. He will likely be a mid-round developmental inside backer for his new team.
